Takamine EF450C-TT NEX Acoustic Guitar Brown Sunburst

Takamine EF450C-TT NEX Acoustic Guitar — Brown Sunburst

The EF450C-TT delivers a balanced, responsive feel across its NEX body with Venetian cutaway, making it equally comfortable for seated or standing play. The 42.5mm nut width and 25.35" scale length provide a comfortable, modern playing geometry. This 2017-era model pairs premium tonewoods with Takamine's proven TLD-2 electronics, creating a stage-ready instrument that transitions seamlessly from practice to performance.

Playability & Construction

The solid Thermal Spruce top, solid Flame Maple back and sides, and Maple neck create a resonant, articulate voice with natural projection. Striped Ebony fingerboard with abalone and mother-of-pearl "Grass Flower" inlays—paired with gold hardware—establish both tactile precision and visual refinement.

Electronics & Amplification

The TLD-2 Line Driver system includes a Palathetic pickup with dedicated controls for volume, treble, midrange, and bass, giving you surgical tone-shaping at any volume. Powered by two 1.5-volt AA batteries with up to 1,000 hours runtime and automatic shutoff, the electronics remain transparent and responsive to your playing dynamics.
